Currently U-Boot uses globally defined eth_* functions. This is
horribly unflexible. This patch replaces the global functions
with pointers from structs. We could also use CONFIG_NET_MULTI,
but this has other implications, though we should merge this
some day.
Also, U-Boot has no unique way to handle MAC addresses. Each and
every board and network driver uses it's own mechanism to set the
MAC address. There are several problems which I've for too often.
For example everything goes well if we boot from network, but when
we boot from flash U-Boot forgets to set the MAC address and the
linux network driver has none.
This patch adds [gs]et_mac_address to the eth_device struct and
handles it as follows:
- First try to get a valid MAC address from the EEPROM and set
'ethaddr' accordingly.
- If no valid MAC address is found in the EEPROM (or no EEPROM is
connected), we set the devices MAC address from 'ethaddr'
This is done in eth_initialize which is called on startup for
every board.
This patch adds support for the Prodrive P3M750 (PPC750 & MV64460)
and the P3M7448 (MPC7448 & MV64460) PMC modules. Both modules are
quite similar and share the same board directory "prodrive/p3mx"
and the same config file "p3mx.h".

Modifications are based on the linux kernel approach and
support two use cases:
1) Add O= to the make command line
'make O=/tmp/build all'
2) Set environement variable BUILD_DIR to point to the desired location
'export BUILD_DIR=/tmp/build'
'make'
The second approach can also be used with a MAKEALL script
'export BUILD_DIR=/tmp/build'
'./MAKEALL'
Command line 'O=' setting overrides BUILD_DIR environent variable.
When none of the above methods is used the local build is performed and
the object files are placed in the source directory.
- Add IXP4xx NPE ethernet MAC support
- Add support for Intel IXDPG425 board
- Add support for Prodrive PDNB3 board
- Add IRQ support

[This patch does not include cpu/ixp/npe/IxNpeMicrocode.c which still
sufferes from licensing issues. Blame Intel.]
- Support for TQM8541/8555 boards added.
- Complete rework of TQM8540/8560 support.
- Common TQM85xx code now supports all current TQM85xx platforms
(TQM8540/8541/8555/8560).
- DDR SDRAM size detection added.
- CAS latency default values can be overwritten by setting "serial#"
to e.g. "ABC0001 casl=25" -> CAS latency 2.5 will be used.
If problems are detected with this non default CAS latency,
the defualt values will be used instead.
- FLASH size detection added.
- Moved FCC ethernet driver initialization behind TSEC driver init
-> TSEC is first device.

Use the approved environment variable names. Added "tftpdstp" to
allow ports other than 69 per Tolunay Orkun's recommendation.
